The prose was masterfully written and it hooked me right from the first chapter. Seeing as I am a history buff, it really was a ride reading this (no pun intended, of course). This story was beautiful, although the ending was a just a tad anticlimactic in my opinion. But overall, it is good and I definitely recommend!

Iconic shit. I love the fact that, although Jill wasn't in the movie itself, we know what happens to her in this novelization. It's truly a delight to see her being the badass woman that she is. And still, Carlos-Alice is a ship I will take to my grave.

Although a phenomenal novelization, there are some things that I would rather change about this book. But it was great, very in-character for our heroes.

When I first saw this book, I was thinking that this would be a great find. It had always been a passion of mine, you see, to read stories rooted in history or set in a timeline from far back. Although, yes, some delays were made during my time reading this, but I never forgot about it.
It is such an interesting book, as in the previous books I've read there wasn't really a POV of the falcon, and it was a change that I found very refreshing. The book will show people some things that mirrored the life of those that lived during the period of the Gold Rush. As a non-American person who only learned glimpses about the history of North America, it is somewhat essential to me to learn these information, as I am very interested in the history of different countries. Everything - from the symbolism to clever storyline to that Falcon POV that was incorporated in the book - was really worth the read. While I am not much for reading a scenes that are surprising and violent, I think that this was one that really caught my attention, in which I as a reader could disregard those as I know that they play a role into the story. It tells us a sad reality of the cruel things that were done to the Native American tribes, which reflects on the reality that some of our brothers and sisters are facing today. An oppression that is shocking to reveal to the world, but essential in order to progress and not make the same mistakes as before. I feel that this was what made the book more impactful to me, because I am now witnessing a reality where atrocious cruelties are committed to fellow human beings - not only because of greed, but because of fear and judgment and so many more reasons. It is, therefore, in my opinion, relevant to the situation of the society nowadays.
P. S.: I got a free copy of this ebook from the Booktasters reading program in Twitter. Check them out at: @Booktasters.

A great and quick read, it shows a glimpse into the past of the Wizard of the First Order, Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander. It helps us understand him better in terms of how he is a caring father and a merciful man.
It portrays a reality of how a mother's love is, and portrays a brave selflessness in spite of many difficulties. It's beautiful.
There are, indeed, many things to learn from "Debt Of Bones."

Quite a quick and fun read! I love the mystery that surrounds the tale, and it makes me wonder whether or not it is actually true.
